Civil society groups in Ghana are lobbying in opposition to the introduction of genetically modified foods in the country after the government approved field trials on selected crops in 2013. Because of rising food prices and the effects of climate change, African governments are looking to improve crop yields and reduce hunger though GM crops but many are still reluctant to authorize its use. Lingering fears of health risks as well as concerns that GM crops might damage local produce markets and hurt small farmers have made the issue extremely controversial.

Peace CorpsVolunteers show how the hard working women of northern Ghana process shea nuts into shea butter.

A 200 litre capacity plastic barrel and continuous supply of cow dung and urine (something most farmers have access to) - that's all you need to set up a manure factory in your farm.
Cow dung, urine, water and sugar (jaggery is usually used; cane sugar and palm fruit would do as well) mixture is allowed to ferment and settle for 24 hours. The resultant clear micro-nutrient rich solution is used to irrigate the fields.
There is no complicated filtration procedure involved and there are no extra costs!

How sheabutter is made in homes in Tamale .
Most mothers teach their children how sheabutter is made daily .
It is a tradition that must go on.

The territory of present-day Ghana has been inhabited for millennia, with the first permanent state dating back to the 11th century. Numerous kingdoms and empires emerged over the centuries, of which the most powerful was the Kingdom of Ashanti. Beginning in the 15th century, numerous European powers contested the area for trading rights, with the British ultimately establishing control of the coast by the late 19th century. Following over a century of native resistance, Ghana's current borders were established by the 1900s as the British Gold Coast. In 1957, it became the first sub-saharan African nation to declare independence from European colonisation.

Shea butter

Shea butter (/ˈʃiː/ or /ˈʃiː.ə/) is an off-white or ivory-colored fat extracted from the nut of the African shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa). Shea butter is a triglyceride (fat) derived mainly from stearic acid and oleic acid. It is widely used in cosmetics as a moisturizer, salve or lotion. Shea butter is edible and is used in food preparation in Africa. Occasionally, the chocolate industry uses shea butter mixed with other oils as a substitute for cocoa butter, although the taste is noticeably different.

History

Accounts from as early as Cleopatra's Egypt speak of caravans bearing clay jars of valuable shea butter for cosmetic use. The funeral beds of early kings were carved in the wood of shea trees. Shea butter's skin care and healing properties were first harnessed thousands of years ago. The history of shea as a precious commodity can be traced back to Ancient Egypt, where shea butter was and continues to be used to protect the hair and skin against the fierce sun and the hot dry winds of African deserts and savannah.

Peace Corps

The Peace Corps is a volunteer program run by the United States government. The stated mission of the Peace Corps includes providing technical assistance, helping people outside the United States to understand American culture, and helping Americans to understand the cultures of other countries. The work is generally related to social and economic development. Each program participant, a Peace Corps Volunteer, is an American citizen, typically with a college degree, who works abroad for a period of two years after three months of training.

Volunteers work with governments, schools, non-profit organizations, non-government organizations, and entrepreneurs in education, business, information technology, agriculture, and the environment. After 24 months of service, volunteers can request an extension of service.

The program was established by Executive Order 10924, issued by President John F. Kennedy on March 1, 1961, announced by televised broadcast March 2, 1961, and authorized by Congress on September 21, 1961, with passage of the Peace Corps Act (Pub.L. 87–293). The act declares the program's purpose as follows:

Nickel Creek (album)

Nickel Creek is an eponymous album by the acoustic/"newgrass" trio known as Nickel Creek. The group had released two albums prior to this, however their earlier albums are no longer in print, and the band redefined their style before the release of Nickel Creek. As a result, Nickel Creek is widely regarded as their debut album. It was released by Sugar Hill Records, and produced by country star Alison Krauss.

Track listing

Original album cover

The album was originally released with a different cover photo which featured fourth band member Scott Thile. He was also mentioned more extensively in the album credits. Upon his departure from the band, the album was reprinted with a new photo which featured the remaining three members of the band, and Scott's credits were lessened slightly to simply indicate his performance on the individual songs.

Other than photography credit, the track listings, performances, and all other credits are identical on both releases.

Civil society groups in Ghana are lobbying in opposition to the introduction of genetically modified foods in the country after the government approved field trials on selected crops in 2013. Because of rising food prices and the effects of climate change, African governments are looking to improve crop yields and reduce hunger though GM crops but many are still reluctant to authorize its use. Lingering fears of health risks as well as concerns that GM crops might damage local produce markets and hurt small farmers have made the issue extremely controversial.

Graeme heads to the iconic KaneshieMarket in Accra/Ghana, to give us his survival guide for an African market. We cover various shopping tips as he explores this bustling environment.

Be aware of your personal belongings, and remember your bearings (as not to get lost when you’ve finished shopping).

The Making of Black Soap in Yoruba Land

Black soap is a handmade soap, known for being gentle and alleviating skin ailments, that has been used for centuries throughout Western Africa. It consists of a naturally-derived emollient combined with the nutrient-rich ashes of native African plant materials. It is used on the face, body and hair. Currently, some artisans who make black soap deviate from the original African recipe by replacing plantain ashes with more accessible cocoa ashes, as well as by adding essential oils, herbs or dried flowers.
African black soap is familiar to many people of African descent for its skin care benefits. It has been known to soothe skin irritations and diseases from simple rashes to contact dermatitis and psoriasis, as well as fading skin discolorations and evening out skin tone.

Mushroom Production In Ghana

Smallholder farmers are key actors in the global food system, producing roughly 80 percent of the food consumed in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. Yet, the voices of smallholders are often neglected by policy makers when trade deals are negotiated or regulations established. Increasing the participation of smallholder farmers in agricultural trade has the potential to boost livelihoods, improve food security, and fuel economic growth.
Within an international trade regime marked by ever-more-stringent quality and safety standards, sophisticated value-chains, and byzantine contracts, the challenge of linking smallholders to markets is no simple task. Considering the increasing importance of agricultural trade to food security, it is also not a task that we can afford to ignore.

Black soap is a handmade soap, known for being gentle and alleviating skin ailments, that has been used for centuries throughout Western Africa. It consists of a naturally-derived emollient combined with the nutrient-rich ashes of native African plant materials. It is used on the face, body and hair. Currently, some artisans who make black soap deviate from the original African recipe by replacing plantain ashes with more accessible cocoa ashes, as well as by adding essential oils, herbs or dried flowers.
African black soap is familiar to many people of African descent for its skin care benefits. It has been known to soothe skin irritations and diseases from simple rashes to contact dermatitis and psoriasis, as well as fading skin discolorations and evening out skin tone.
Nigerians and Ghanaians have used black soap for centuries for bathing and for reducing body odor. It was, and still is, used as a shampoo for hair, not only to cleanse, but also to alleviate scalp itchiness and irritation. African black soap was used to relieve oily skin and certain skin conditions, such as acne and eczema.Women used black soap for skin care during and after pregnancy to keep from getting dry skin, stretch marks and other skin conditions caused by hormonal changes. The soap was also used on babies because of its purity and it was gentle on sensitive skin.African black soap or ose dudu originated with the Yoruba people in Nigeria and the Yoruba communities in Benin and Togo.
The process of making African black soap is involved, but in the some other version, plantain peels are dried under the sun. The skins (and/or palm leaves and cocoa pods) are then roasted in a clay oven to produce ash. Water is added to the ashes and filtered. Ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, palm kernel oil or cocoa butter are heated and added, and hand stirred by local women for 24 hours. The soap solidifies and moves to the top, is scooped out and the mixture is set out to cure for two weeks.

In recent years the world has become increasingly aware of health and environmental issues...Around the world consumers have concerns about the quality and safety of the food they eat. Pesticides, fertilizers and veterinary drugs all impact on the food we eat each day, in response organic farming has blossomed. Organic farming refers to farming practice done without the use of synthetic chemicals like pesticides, fungicides, insecticides or any genetically modified seeds, organic farmers use a variety of techniques that sustain ecosystems and reduce pollution while they improve the production and quality of nutrition from the produce we consume. This includes crop rotation, natural composting, environmentally friendly pest control and homeopathy in order to produce foods that are free of all artificial additives.
Traditional African agricultural methods have always been organic and have been a big influence in today's modern organic agriculture. Artificial fertilizers and chemicals came to prominence in the late 20th century while traditional African agricultural production did not use biocides and was entirely dependent on the natural resource base, just one more example of how Africa is the cradle of mankind...
Formal, certified organic farming in South Africa is still small, but because of the success of this methodology for emerging farmers it is now anticipated that small-holder and subsistence farmers may feed as much as two-thirds of the population organic food is not a trend or only for the wealthy, it is the future of food production on our continent.

In this video Green People founder Charlotte Vohtz sees how organic Shea Butter is made by...

NorthGhana in the Upper EastDistrict. The Upper EastRegion is a small district with the regional capital in Bolgatanga. Financial service is hardly not available because of the low salary and just in the big citys.
Women in North Ghana are tethered to there farm and doing the most of the work (family, education from the kids, etc.). Therefore they need mainly small-loan which the don't get from the bank.
The NGO's are helping, as well with small-loans, the women with some
agriculture and farming of animals:
-groundnut, beans, maize, millet, sorghum, rice, okra, tomatoes and onions
-goats, chicken, fowls
The sheatree supports the small farmer family's as a naturally resource for groceries and in the medicine; as well for the local plants and biological diversity for the economically useful animals.
In the parkland community's the sheafruit has a crucial meaning as a support from the basis of groceries. This fruit is of use for the animals (elefants, pigs, sheeps, bats and birds) as a big grocery as well.
The fleshly Sheafruit had a lot of nutrients (sugar, protein, calcium, potassium).
Shea butter production:
Our group comprising over 120 women and 5 man.
The cooperative known as the Mavis Asigre Woman Shea butter Cooperative is the product of a poverty against the rural women in Northern Ghana.

Collecting area:
Picking up the Sheanuts
Picking up the Sheanuts and the production are just in the hands from women.
- early in the morning at 5am till 10am the nuts are collected every day (in a radius from about 5 kilometers away from house).
- years ago the women just had slippers on. Now they wear normal shoes.
Processing of the sheanut:
After collecting the nuts they have to do more than 5 processing steps until the kernels can be stored and the nuts converted in butter.
Extraction from the fruitpulp
After picking up the nuts the fruitpulp will be removed which Children often are eating.
Kooking:
Now the nuts will be kooked for 45 minutes. The shootforming is now interrupted.
Drying nuts:
After kooking the nuts will be dryed on some jute sacks in the sun. A few times each day they will be turned. In case of rain, wetness or low sun the nuts can get black. These ones are not anymore to use for the production because the black ones have a really low selling price.
Extraction the peel:
You can hear it when the kernels in the peel are dry. If you take one and shake it in your hand you will hear a dry and rustle sound. Now the kernel dissolved from the peel. With a small mortar the peel will be broke.
To dry kernels:
The kernels will be drying for 3 to 5 days. There are lying up of jute sacks on palettes and will be stored in a drying room

Ghana Civil society Say No to GMO foods

Civil society groups in Ghana are lobbying in opposition to the introduction of genetically modified foods in the country after the government approved field trials on selected crops in 2013. Because of rising food prices and the effects of climate change, African governments are looking to improve crop yields and reduce hunger though GM crops but many are still reluctant to authorize its use. Lingering fears of health risks as well as concerns that GM crops might damage local produce markets and hurt small farmers have made the issue extremely controversial.

The Making of Black Soap in Yoruba Land

Black soap is a handmade soap, known for being gentle and alleviating skin ailments, that has been used for centuries throughout Western Africa. It consists of a naturally-derived emollient combined with the nutrient-rich ashes of native African plant materials. It is used on the face, body and hair. Currently, some artisans who make black soap deviate from the original African recipe by replacing plantain ashes with more accessible cocoa ashes, as well as by adding essential oils, herbs or dried flowers.
African black soap is familiar to many people of African descent for its skin care benefits. It has been known to soothe skin irritations and diseases from simple rashes to contact dermatitis and psoriasis, as well as fading skin discolorations and evening out skin tone.
Nigerians and Ghanaians have used black soap for centuries for bathing and for reducing body odor. It was, and still is, used as a shampoo for hair, not only to cleanse, but also to alleviate scalp itchiness and irritation. African black soap was used to relieve oily skin and certain skin conditions, such as acne and eczema.Women used black soap for skin care during and after pregnancy to keep from getting dry skin, stretch marks and other skin conditions caused by hormonal changes. The soap was also used on babies because of its purity and it was gentle on sensitive skin.African black soap or ose dudu originated with the Yoruba people in Nigeria and the Yoruba communities in Benin and Togo.
The process of making African black soap is involved, but in the some other version, plantain peels are dried under the sun. The skins (and/or palm leaves and cocoa pods) are then roasted in a clay oven to produce ash. Water is added to the ashes and filtered. Ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, palm kernel oil or cocoa butter are heated and added, and hand stirred by local women for 24 hours. The soap solidifies and moves to the top, is scooped out and the mixture is set out to cure for two weeks.

iSpani 8 - Episode 38: Rydawi Fish Farms - Aquaculture farm manager

We are putting our toes in the water of aquaculture today…and its warm and inviting. HustlerJack Kgatle is living proof that if you give a man a fish, he will eat for a day, but if you teach him to farm fish…we all eat well forever! Aquaculture has been identified as a critical industry, due to the popularity of its produce and the declining yields world-wide. In South Africa, aquaculture has been identified as part of the key industries for promotion in line with the country’s Industrial PolicyActionPlan II (IPAP II). The Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries is also lending its support to the sector and encouraging collaboration with stakeholders across the sector.

Ispani - Episode 16 - Organic farming

In recent years the world has become increasingly aware of health and environmental issues...Around the world consumers have concerns about the quality and safety of the food they eat. Pesticides, fertilizers and veterinary drugs all impact on the food we eat each day, in response organic farming has blossomed. Organic farming refers to farming practice done without the use of synthetic chemicals like pesticides, fungicides, insecticides or any genetically modified seeds, organic farmers use a variety of techniques that sustain ecosystems and reduce pollution while they improve the production and quality of nutrition from the produce we consume. This includes crop rotation, natural composting, environmentally friendly pest control and homeopathy in order to produce foods that are free of all artificial additives.
Traditional African agricultural methods have always been organic and have been a big influence in today's modern organic agriculture. Artificial fertilizers and chemicals came to prominence in the late 20th century while traditional African agricultural production did not use biocides and was entirely dependent on the natural resource base, just one more example of how Africa is the cradle of mankind...
Formal, certified organic farming in South Africa is still small, but because of the success of this methodology for emerging farmers it is now anticipated that small-holder and subsistence farmers may feed as much as two-thirds of the population organic food is not a trend or only for the wealthy, it is the future of food production on our continent. JoinJames Mmako age 24 who is keen to work in the agricultural sector as an organic farmer.

Smallholder farmers are key actors in the global food system, producing roughly 80 percent of the food consumed in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. Yet, the voices of smallholders are often neglected by policy makers when trade deals are negotiated or regulations established. Increasing the participation of smallholder farmers in agricultural trade has the potential to boost livelihoods, improve food security, and fuel economic growth.
Within an international trade regime marked by ever-more-stringent quality and safety standards, sophisticated value-chains, and byzantine contracts, the challenge of linking smallholders to markets is no simple task. Considering the increasing importance of agricultural trade to food security, it is also not a task that we can afford to ignore.
What is the role of smallholder farmers in the global exchange of agricultural goods? What barriers do trade regulations and standards impose for smallholders to access local, regional, and global markets? How can we build an enabling environment for trade in which smallholders can participate more fully?
